Well, in so far as much as I've been able to ascertain, I wasn't the only one getting wtfpwnd by him when he went enraged. I just happened to get the unlucky most award. (by a lot. ;)

We killed him, and would have killed him easier had he not went evade bugged for half a sec and got all his life back when we had him at 50% the first time.

He's a kite fight. When he goes enrage everyone backs away, pling at him, and make sure you're not in range. He moves stupid slow. He'll hit plate wearers for 6k. When he de-enrages, he's much speedier and a whole *hell* of a lot less damage, but he's wiped his aggro table and is immune to taunt so you just have to kite him until the tank can build aggro the old fashioned way, hold him in place for a while and beat on him till he enrages again...

Maybe, however, we did do it wrong, and I'm just trying to salvage my ego for 'Most Squished EVER'. :)

First time I ran that instance -- you know the snake dude? Maybe it was because I was in a pickup (that liked to overplan like MAD =\) -- but that stupid boss reset himself three times. Pulled himself out of combat, respawned his guardians, regen'd to full, reset. Stupid boss; I feel your pain.(*tease* = I'VE never been hit that hard, man...)

You weren't there Tuesday for Ragnaros when on the second attempt, when he submerged for the first Sons spawn at 52% . . . he stayed that way, didn't come back out . . . just bugged out and stayed at 52%.

We had to have everyone run out of the instance, then go back in again after he'd fully reset to finally kill him.

His feelings reached an intensity hitherto unknown to him. He relived the experiences of an infinitely varied life; he died and was reborn, he loved ardently and passionately and found himself separated once more and forever from his beloved. At last, toward dawn, when the first light began to dissolve the shadows, a sense of peace began to grow in his soul, and the images became clearer, more permanent…
